Wyndham Grand Tbilisi, Georgia hotel review

Simon Calder’s Travel

The Wyndham Grand Tbilisi is an ideal hotel for those looking to explore this exciting city and the beauty of the surrounding area. Centrally located and with the comfort and design you would expect from a modern mid-luxury offering


Location

Wyndham Grand Tbilisi is a short stroll from the busy and historic Freedom Square and the vibrant Rustaveli Avenue. Museums, shops, cafés, galleries, wine bars and metro access are all within easy walking distance. Tourist favourites such as the Dry Bridge Market are slightly further away, but still very walkable. It’s a perfect location to spend a few nights in the city, hitting the sweet spot of being central enough to explore all the main sights but still tucked away from any busy roads. On a good day, you can be at the hotel in 25 minutes by taxi from Tbilisi International Airport.

The hotel opened in May 2019 with Wyndham hoping to build on the success of a tourism boom in the country and central Asia just beyond. This was quickly scuppered by the Covid pandemic, but since then it has gone from strength to strength. The chain also operates hotels across Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan.

Service

The service at Wydham was welcoming, and hotel staff were happy to help at any hour via the 24-hour reception. This included looking after bags after check-out and printing tickets/boarding passes. Ahead of a full day of exploring the countryside that surrounds Tbilisi, they were quick to offer a takeaway option from the breakfast buffet and coffee to go.
